I saw this today and I love it already! It's the Becca leather jacket by Mackage, available at Bloomingdales and ShopStyle. $560 USD.

How did it get ruined? Because I just bought one from H&M! I haven't worn it yet though. I'm just curious to know what I should or shouldn't do to ruin it lol.

got one at h&m ... obviously some fake.
got ruined very quickly ! barely wore it ...
don't buy there for a leather jkt ! NEVER ! whatever yr budget is !
do you wanna spend 100$ twice and more ? or 200$ once ?

go to thrift stores - if you don't have the 500-1000$ budget ! for x's sake !



try to find one in good conditions ... and once you clean it, it's ok.
moreover they have this old patine, most of us are craving to get ...

H&M do have a faux leather jacket. I wouldn´t buy one. But I also saw another one online also from H&M and it was real leather. It was so cool. I haven´t been able to find it at any of their stores...

Just ordered this one online from American Eagle.
Saw it in store, and the leather was sooo buttery soft and the color was great, but no sizes left.

Love the Balenciaga Leather Jacket, so this is a nice alternative for now...

^^^ I have the same jacket too and its great! The Balenciaga is just too damn expensive, even though its heavenly.

[CherryBomb01]

Leather Jackets

What are some of your favourite ones out now?

 

[professoralenic]

The Gap has a great one on sale as of now. It's a practical leahter jacket with a hood. Sure, it's not as edgy as the typical "motorcycle" leather jacket, but it's just as stylish. http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?searchCID=25781&pid=498748&scid=498748002&vid=-1

I finally found a black leather jacket I actually liked

This year I have developed a real love for these jackets. I love how versatile they are

 

[iamnerdee]

leather jackets are awesome! my only problem is that i can never find any that are slim enough in the sleeve i bought a cute jacket recently from danier leather (http://www.danier.com/eng/Women-ShortJackets/104030379) in toronto, but the sleeves are too wide for my taste. anyone know any decent leather tailors in the dc area?

 

[indiegoespop]

Yes, leather jackets are a staple. I like how leather jackets can add edge to a simple outfit. Leather jackets also help a women pull off that masculine/feminine look.

I just bought this one. I first spotted it on the blog of a boutique in my area for $395 but by the time I got them on the phone it was sold out. Luckily I found another one via Google that was a)on sale b)had a discount coupon online and c) was out of state so I didn't have to pay tax. I love it:

great jacket! I think that this is a very interesting and original take on a classic. looks very wearable. the leather must be pretty soft and thin to drape like that.

 

[Velony]

marlasinger, i really like the style/shape of that jacket. congrats. i'm sure you'll get lots of wear out of it.

marlasinger that jacket is fab & you wear it well!

I got the photos from a website. The model in that pic is probably 15 years younger than me and unlike me, does not have baby spit up in her hair.

I love the jacket. It is thin but not as thin as one would think given how it drapes. Now if it would just stop raining for a minute, maybe I could wear it outside.

i LOVE that jacket. it is the perfect spin on a leather jacket. as for me i'm still looking for the perfect one.. it sucks how i have 3 pairs already and they aren't cutting it for me. one is too big in the arms, one is cropped but has perfect sleeves, and one is bomberish and i hate that now.

i did get this really nice fitting faux leather brown jacket from forever 21.. super soft and has fleece lining that is soft as well.
